Re: cygwin copy
Michael,
% cygcheck mount
Found: D:\cygwin\bin\mount.exe
D:\cygwin\bin\mount.exe
D:\cygwin\bin\cygwin1.dll
D:\WINNT\System32\KERNEL32.dll
D:\WINNT\System32\NTDLL.DLL
Does this not mean that the mount command does use Cygwin1.dll?

You could also create restore_mounts.bat the same way and run it in a MSDOS
window. The mount command does not depend on cygwin1.dll and the `mount
-m` output should work under MSDOS 'shells' as well as under Cygwin shells.
